Description

A provacative graphic memoir perfect for fans of Allie Brosh's Solutions and Other Problems

- Thorogood is the winner of the 2023 Russ Manning Most Promising Newcomer Award
- Nominated for two 2023 Eisner Awards in the Best Graphic Memoir and Best Writer/Artist categories
- Winner of the 2023 Ringo Award in the Best Graphic Novel category
- Included in Forbes' "The Best Graphic Novels of 2022" list

The 2023 Russ Manning Most Promising Newcomer Award winning cartoonist, Zoe Thorogood (writer and artist of The Impending Blindness of Billie Scott, artist on Joe Hill's Rain graphic novelisation), records six months of her own life as it falls apart in a desperate attempt to put it back together again in the only way she knows how. It's Lonely at the Centre of the Earth is an intimate and meta-narrative look into the life of a selfish artist who must create for her own survival. A poignant and original depiction of a young woman's struggle with mental health--through the ups and downs of anxiety, depression, and imposter syndrome--as she forges a promising career in sequential art and finds herself along the way.

"This has the force of a fist punching through the page." --Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

"Thorogood taps into sensation and the way that it is experienced in a way that is unlike anything I've seen before. It's astonishing." --AIPT
